June 2014 Sleever seeking other June 2014 Sleevers



Recommended Posts

I'm scheduled for my sleeve surgery on June 4th and am looking for other June sleevers to connect with. I just joined this app yesterday, so I'm a little green. It was recommended to me by someone who had the sleeve procedure a year ago. She said connecting with other people who were having the same procedure in the same month was really helpful to her, so I'm hoping to find some other people like me who are looking for help and support as we begin our new journey. Anyone interested in joining a group for June 2014 Sleevers?

Thanks BLAKQUEEN! It's nice to meet you as well. I will definitely check out the various pre-op topics. I will start my 2 week liquid diet on Thursday this week. I think I'll do okay on the liquid diet as long as I can find some Protein powders that taste good once mixed with milk or Water. Have you found a brand or flavor you enjoy? I'm open for suggestions.

Hello all! I guess it's time to join the group :D. I am being sleeved June 2nd. I am excited and absolutely scared to death! So glad to have a group feeling as I do. I love all of the "lists" and information on this site! Sweet Baby, I've been using Premier Protein shakes. They are pricey but very good. If you happen to be a costco member, they are on sale now. They're great for after surgery as well... 30g of Protein. Hope this helps!

@@Sweet Baby,my doctor has me doing slim fast, muscle milk lite, or Atkins for my two week liquid diet. I like GNC brand whey Protein and Unjury protein. You have to shop around find one you like, try samples first. Unjury and nectar have sample packs that you can order. Syntrax Nectar is a fruit based whey protein. There ate others feel free to ask me or others about them. I also order a book from Nikki Massie called The Bariatric Foodie Guide to Perfect Protein Shakes, she also has a blog with some of her recipes on it-Bariatric Foodie. Feel free to contact me or others for help. Good luck

Thanks LovetoDive! We don't have a Costco, but we do have a Sam's Club, so I'll check there to see if they carry the Premier Protein Shakes. I appreciate the feedback.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
